That is so clever, Eileen! Well done!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! Not only for the Christmas candles, but all year through!
ReplyDeleteI used to love making sand candles when I was a kid. These leftovers would work well, wouldn't they?
ReplyDeleteYes, Drew, they would be good for sand candles.
ReplyDeleteDid you ever make milk carton candles as a kid? I learned how in Girl Scouts and will show how in Monday's post.
We had the world's best den mother. She let us do the candles in her home kitchen and use her hand mixer to whip the wax up like snow to coat our candles.
Can you imagine the mess?! LOL
What a clever idea. Never thought of that.I'll for sure have to get it a try. Thanks for the cool tip.
